    So according to you Zodiac something like this would work!

    Code: 
    #Dynamic 0x800000

#ORG @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
checkflag 0x200
if b_true goto @gotit
GivePokemon 25 5 4 0 0 0
message @recieved
setflag 0x200
Release
End

#ORG @gotit
message @howis
Release
End

#ORG @recieved
=Here is pikachu!

#ORG @howis
=How is pikachu doing?
    Click to expand...

    That will work fine. Except I think you need a space after the "=" in Text Scripts.
    Code: 
    #ORG @recieved
=Here is pikachu!

#ORG @howis
=How is pikachu doing?
    Should be
    Code: 
    #ORG @recieved
= Here is pikachu!

#ORG @howis
= How is pikachu doing?

    Oh, well... If it can wait a few days the new version of XSE will have color codes included. :) Otherwise, PM me, and I'll explain.

    • I'm quite sure I used colour codes with XSE O.o
    I'll try it out again, but I'm sure it was with XSE......
    just wrote \c\h01\h04 (code for red).

    I need halp with a script I made... To get your first pokemon you talk to this guy, he just says "test blah blah blah" then you get a Houndour and music plays and a txt box pops up saying "[PLAYER] recieved a HOUNDOUR!" but after that box the "test blah blah blah" box comes back and so does the "[PLAYER] recieved a HOUNDOUR!" then it just stops. How do I make it not repeat the second time? this is the script its not fully complete but the whole repeat thing bugs me...

    #dynamic 800109

    #org @starterpkm
    lock
    faceplayer
    checkflag 0x200
    if 0x1 goto @father1
    msgbox @houndour
    callstd 0x6
    goto @houndourget
    release
    end

    #org @father1
    lock
    faceplayer
    msgbox @well
    callstd 0x6
    release
    end

    #org @houndour
    = test blah blah blah

    #org @houndourget
    lock
    fanfare 0x13E
    msgbox2 @houndourget2
    waitmsgbox
    waitfanfare
    callstd 0x6
    givepokemon 0xE4 0x5 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x000000 0x00
    setflag 0x200
    setflag 0x828
    release
    end

    #org @houndourget2
    = \v\h01 received a HOUNDOUR!

    #org @well
    = You already have a pokemon

    • I show my method tu use XSE:
    -Insert script with Poketscript
    -Then decompile the script with XSE
    -Edit it
    -Compile it.

    I use this way because i don't like very much dynamic system
    and i can edit the script easily with XSE

    Hope it will help someone^^

    Ps:Sorry for my english.

    Well, why do you have two setflags, try giving the 0x828 just away. I am not a XSE-Pro, I am also only learning right now, but I know some stuff about PokeScript..so yeah..

    The 0x828 flag is the flag that enables you to view your pokemon status, this flag is enabled when you choose your starter pokemon. Since this is your starter pokemon I need to enable that flag, or else you just get the pokemon and can't check its status.

    My script glitches, when I talk to the person assigned with this it shows no text but gives the poke, then when I go to bag, you change your character to the giver of the pokemon! What did I do wrong, here is my improved script

    This happened to me, If you change maps before going to the bag it shouldnt switch characters. I wish I could tell you how to fix it, but if you do let me know I would like to fix that on mine too :)

    Ya I fixed the change character thing by making it say if b_false goto @recieved instead of message @recieved after the givepokemon but placed it before the givepokemon! Now I am giong to try to move the givepokemon script to one of the subscripts and see if any positive results happen.

    here, its a bit improved, I did it in a rush, tell me if there's errors. Um, you've forgot to put boxset under message. There's no need to use CAPs(Uppercase) but thats upto you.

    Thanks, it worked, time to add my movement script, this is gonna be the beginning of new hack!

    My Movement script is like this and when I compile and open it adds every movement so it confuses itself while moving and freezes, why is it doing this!
    Code: 
    #dynamic 0x71A2E0

#org @beginning
lockall
checkflag 0x200
if b_true goto @gotit
applymovement 0x2 0x71A2E0
applymovement MOVE_PLAYER 0x71A41C
waitmovement 0x0
call 0x71A41C
boxset 0x2
releaseall
end

'-----------
' Movements
'-----------
#org 0x71A2E0
#raw 12 'Step Left (Normal)
#raw 4A 'Face player
#raw FE 'End of Movements

#org @gotit
release
end

    First off, you really shouldn't be using a mix of Dynamic and Static Offsets in your script. This makes it kind of difficult to read...

    If possible could you show me the fully non-compiled script? Unless you don't have one... In which case please PM me with exactly what you want the script to do and I'll write you up a script and show you exactly what each command does. :)

    • Code: 
    #Dynamic 0x3B4D84

#org @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
Message @Speak
BoxSet 0x06
release
end
#org @Speak
= "Hey!"

    That's my script. :)
    On Advance Map I create a person, Their Offset is 71A284
    Their script offset is 3B4D84.
    I click "Open script" in advance map and XSE opens up with FireRed as file and 3B4D84 as the offset.
    That's when I put this in
    Code: 
    #Dynamic 0x3B4D84

#org @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
Message @Speak
BoxSet 0x06
release
end
#org @Speak
= "Hey!"
    Same code again :P
    And hit Compile. It says it worked but it doesn't...Whenever I re open the script offset 3B4D84 It gives me a blank page...almost
    Code: 
    '-----------------------
#org 0x3B4D84

    And the person doesn't talk to me ingame. What am I doing wrong?

    lol, you're not supposed to use offsets anyhow, try looking for lot of FF's(byte 0xFF), FF means free space, other than that it means its used. Try to optimise your script also:

    #Dynamic 0x3B4D84

    #org @Main
    Lock
    FacePlayer
    Message @Speak
    BoxSet 0x06
    release
    end
    #org @Speak
    = "Hey!"
    Click to expand...
    to:
    #dynamic 0xYour Free Space Offset
    #org @Main
    message @speak
    boxset 0x2 ' 0x2 contains a builtin faceplayer and lock
    end

    #org @speak
    = "Hey!"
    Click to expand...

    of course there's something wrong, you've completely mistaken XSE as pokewitch, XSE uses the original method for msgbox scripts. Here's the code
    #dynamic 0x800000
    #org @Start
    msgbox @msg
    boxset 0x2
    end

    #org @msg
    = ....
    Click to expand...
    Once again, this here's XSE, not pokewitch. Plus there's command help, just press F1 if you don't understand any command or if it says unknown keyword-honestly do anyone ever bother reading the command database before scripting?

    Thanks, but I already had an offset in the top part that I found uses FsF. I got it to work by looking at other scripts already in Pokemon.
    Made it like this
    Code: 
    '-----------------------
#org 0x3B4D84
lock
faceplayer
msgbox2 0x8456734 '""
callstd 0x6
release
end


'---------
' Strings
'---------
#org 0x456734
= Hey! How are you?

    XSE gave me a hand and put thre strings part in automatically :D Hazzam lol
